Happy 40th Birthday Singapore!!
I went to the market early in the morning to get milk for my preparation of Carbonara.
Guess wat, the market was jam packed with pple!
Maybe i tot everybody will be as lazy as me, and didnt wan to wake up early at all.
HAHA...
I enjoyed the crowd though.
It was scenes of family sitting around the breakfast table, enjoying their breakfast.
It was scenes of friends sitting around the breakfast table, enjoying their breakfast.
It was scenes of man and wife only, sitting around the breakfast table, enjoying their breakfast.
This can't be boring at all.
It is the companion that matters. How early also never mind. :)
I came back to prepare my ingredients for my carbonara.
It was a meal I promised Livingstone.
That's my linguine, with lotsa mushrooms, bacon and ham.
Can make it or not? heh heh...
Later in the afternoon, Livingstone also had to fulfil his promise.
haha...
There were many times, we passed by a road, that has a brown signage and wrote "Reflections at Bukit Chandu"...
Now, today is the day, we drove in and find out what exactly is this place.
Guess wat!
It is actually a musuem!
And, we are bloody lucky, becos, today is National Day, so the entrance is free for today!!
yay!!
anyway, we only saved 4bucks. chey.
OK, let me officially recommend this place.
I like this musuem. Tucked away from the touristy sites.
It has a theatre that plays 3-D movies based on the Japanese Occupation.
Headphones are provided to give us a more realistic feel.
Sound Effect and Visual Effect are both taken care of.
I felt I was transported back to the tough times, with the bomb warnings and siren,
pple shouting and crying over the lost of their loved ones....
I almost teared when i heard an account from a victim (Mr Chia), about how he saw his family being killed by the japanese soldiers on CNY....
Cruel....
"If we do not remember our heroes, we will produce no heroes..."
That was said by BG(NS) Mr George Yeo, at the official launch of "The Price of Peace" on 21st June 1997.
Now u can see this statement at the entrance of the musuem.
Reflections at Bukit Chandu
31K Pepys Road S(118458),
Opening Hours: 9am - 5pm, Tuesday - Sunday
We also happen to stumble upon a Canopy walk at The Kent Ridge Park.
Another tree top walk, much easier to climb as compared to the McRitchie one.
Only 3 mins away from the carpark.
Have u heard of the Garden of Fame?
heh heh...
We took a ride and follow the road to Jurong Island, and ended up at Jurong Hill Park.
haha....
There, we stumble yet on another interesting site, The Garden of Fame,
where illustrious visitors such as England's Queen Elizabeth II, Japan's Crown Prince Akihito, Indonesia's President Suharto and Singapore's own President Benjamin Henry Sheares have planted trees.
A unique feature of the Jurong Hill Park is its spiral lookout tower with a 360-degree view of Jurong.
This is one of the trees ....
What a fruitful day.... =)
